Love these! I use them first thing in the morning before announcements! I photocopied a booklet for each kid to keep in their book boxes. I float around the room and when they are ready, they call me over to say their list. If they can do it in one breath, I give them a sticker. I'm amazed at how motivated they are! They naturally challenge themselves! Also like that it allows each child to work at their own pace and level--so it provides differentiation! Well done!

Thanks so much for your purchase & feedback :) I've been planning on making the number posters but just haven't gotten around to it yet. If you email me at donnakcoleman@gmail.com and let me know how you'd like the posters set up (ie. number, word, ten frames), I'll get working on them! Hopefully, I can have them posted within the next couple of weeks. Thanks again :)

Can you post an update changing the planbook years? Thank you! I LOVE this product!

Hello!
So glad that you like the pack :) I've removed the dates from the planbooks so that they can be reused each year. You'll just need to go to your purchases and download the updated version. If you prefer to have the year on them, you can email me at donnakcoleman@gmail.com and I'll make them for you.
Thanks so much!

Hi Patricia,
Sorry to hear that you're having difficulty with the file. The black bars are usually caused by one of the following:
1- If you are on a Mac, make sure that the file is opening with Adobe Reader (not Preview). You will want to find the file in your Downloads folder, right click, and select Open With Adobe Reader.
2- Make sure you have the most recent version of Adobe (free download on the Adobe site).
If it's still not opening correctly, please email me at donnakcoleman@gmail.com and I'll send it directly to you!
Hope this helps! Thanks so much,
Donna

Hi!
That's strange...it shouldn't require a password to open with Adobe Reader. If you're on a Mac, right click on the file in your downloads and choose Open With Adobe Reader. If that doesn't work, you can email me at donnakcoleman@gmail.com and I'll send you the file.
Thanks so much for your interest in these :)

Yes, the round number cards with the polka dot border are small enough to fit in a pocket chart.

Does the calender usually fit in a normal size calender pocket chart? The days of the week seem like they might be too big.

DK Coleman (TpT Seller)
Hi Kate,
The dimensions of the cards are approx. 3 1/2 inches x 10 inches. They are a little larger than regular pocket chart cards. I can send you a sample if you'd like to try them out :)

These one breath boxes are great! I am working on putting together student data notebooks, and I was wondering if you could make a matching data tracking graph for each page. Then they can fill in that section of the graph once they master that page of one breath boxes? Matching monsters would be cute! Thanks!

taylork1222 re: Owl and Chevron Classroom Theme Pack
I just bought the pack and love it! I'm so excited to get it all in my classroom this year. My plan is to pick and choose the pages that I want to send to Fed Ex/Kinkos to have printed on card stock. My question is, since it's all in one PDF, how can I separate it in order to print certain pages and not the entire document? Thanks for your help!
June 9, 2013
DK Coleman (TpT Seller)
Hello!
Thanks so much for your purchase! I'm glad you like it:) I don't think Adobe Reader has the capability of separating pages and creating a new document. Here are a couple of options:
- You could send the file and specify the page ranges you need printed
- If that's not a possibility, you can email me the pages that you'd like to send for printing and I will compile them for you so you'll have a file ready to send for printing. My email is donnakcoleman@gmail.com
Sorry I can't think of an easier way to do it! I'll be sure to get the file to you quickly though :)
Warm Regards,
Donna

Hi and welcome to Tpt!
The pack contains 7 different colors of desk plates. The product is a digital file so you would need to print the items. I like to print them on card stock paper and then laminate them.
Thanks so much for stopping by! I'm more than happy to help if you have any other questions.

If I purchase this and would like to make a few changes (ex. moving a few of the owls around on the calendar cards), would this be possible? I noticed that in the preview the graduation owl was on June and our students graduate in May.
Do you have the square number cards for a calendar chart? That would fit into a pocket calendar?

Hi Angel,
I can definitely switch the owls around on the calendar cards to fit your needs. You would just need to send me an email at donnakcoleman@gmail.com and let me know how you'd like them arranged. As for the square number cards, I have a set that are the same size height as the months and days cards if that would work for you. I could email those to you as well.
Hope this all makes sense! If you have any other questions, feel free to email me. Thanks so much for your interest!

So sorry to hear you're having difficulty with your purchase. I only sell the pack on here and Tpt handles the purchase & checkout process. I'm really not sure what could be causing the issue. I think the best thing would be to click Help (top right of the screen) and then click on Contact Us. The tech support team on here is amazing and they'll be able to figure out what's going on.
My apologies that I can't be more of a help :( I hope they can get it sorted out for you!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I create all of my resources in Microsoft Powerpoint and then save them as a pdf to preserve the formatting. I buy the graphics (clip art, borders, and backgrounds) and fonts from artists here on Tpt, Scrappin Doodles, KPM Doodles. There are also free graphics on Mycutegraphics.com that you might want to check out.
Here is a link to a Youtube video that explains some of the basics of creating teaching resources with Powerpoint:

I bought several of your Breathe Box sets and love the clip art on them. I am unable to use them though because when I try to print them, they have black bars rather than words. I contacted you a couple of months ago about it and you said you'd try to email me the documents to see if it'd help. When I close "preview," as you suggested, it does the same bar thing. Is there any other solution I could try? My email is mrsmedeiros137@comcast.net.

Hi Suzanne,
Sorry to hear that you're still having difficulty with the file. If it is opening in Adobe Reader and you still have the black bars appearing, you may want to try updating your Adobe Reader. A quick way to do this is to go to 'My Purchases' and you'll see the word blurry flashing and then a link that takes you to the Adobe site to get the updated version.
In my experience, the black bars issue has been resolved by making sure it's not opening in Preview and updating Adobe Reader. I can't think of what else could be causing the issue but tech support here at Tpt is really great so they might have another suggestion. You can contact the technical support staff by going to 'My Purchases' and clicking on 'Download Difficulties' and then 'Contact Us'.
Hope this helps!
Thanks,
Donna

I can't think of what else could be causing the issue but tech support here at Tpt is really great so they might have another suggestion. You can contact the technical support staff by going to 'My Purchases' and clicking on 'Download Difficulties' and then 'Contact Us'.
Hope this helps!
Thanks,
Donna

This is exactly what I want! However, I teach bilingual and would like to have it in Spanish as well. Is there any way you could sell me the template to where I can type it in Spanish myself?
Thank you!

LOVE, love, love these sheets. Thank you for creating them. I bought all three packets and use them with my students.
Quick question please. In the free version, you have a few pages at the end with different exercises for reading fluency. They are just what I need for my struggling readers. Do you have more by any chance? I would love to purchase them.

I own your owl and polka dot classroom theme pack and was wondering if you would be willing to add a "warm" and "cool" owl to the weather circles. We find that with the season change, "cold" and "hot" are not enough.
Thanks for considering this.

Hi I have 2 questions.
1) When you make the next set of One Breath Boxes can you email us so we can know it is available?
2) I was wondering if you could explain your system for using this product. For instance do you give the students a sticker each time they are able to do it or do you work with students independently. Thanks in advance for your response.

Hi Erica,
So sorry for the delay getting back to you. If you send me an email at donnakcoleman@gmail.com, I'll send you a note when I post the next set. You will also get a notification if you follow my store.
For your second question, I use the one breath boxes in an informal way in my room. The children take them home in their home reading folders and we use them during partner reading and guided reading groups. When they are able to complete a set, they let me know and we do a "quick check". I have extra copies of the sets available and they take the next one and add it to their folder. I do not formally track these but the children are very good at letting me know when they've mastered a set. This works well for me as I teach 2 classes each day (40 children) so it is not too time consuming but keeps them working at a challenging level. Hope this makes sense! Thanks so much for your interest.
Warm Regards,
Donna

Hi Nancy,
Thanks so much for your interest. At this time, the pack is not editable as it is a PDF. I am looking at adding an editable file but I'm not sure when it will be complete {life is getting busy with back to school!}.
I can certainly sympathize with how challenging it is to find French resources as I teach in an immersion program and my teaching partner has to translate nearly everything! You might want to check out the owl theme pack here as I think it's editable {and really cute too!}
